Life is exhausting

It really gets exhausting when you are anxious day af6ter day 24 hours a day. I should feel better since I now have a good paying job and am better than I was a year ago, but I don't. Every day is exactly the same. I go to work, I feel awkward the whole day, when I talk to people I feel anxious, when I don't talk to people i feel anxious. Not many people try to start a conversation with me. I don't blame them. Who wants to talk to someone who is always anxious? Why should I expect people to like my personality when I don't even like it. I hate it! It's getting tiresome. There's no joy in my life. I'm even starting to hate my job. The only thing I get out of it is money and a boss who won't leave me alone. I don't know what else to do. I just don't feel like I belong in this world. Every day is exactly the same. Socially I fail fail fail. I suck!

I know exactly what you mean. Everyday feels like climbing Mt. Everest. It's a struggle, and it's tiring. SA is so emotionally draining! When the smallest things are so difficult, everything feels heavy.

I agree, all social situations exhaust me even if its with family who i feel totally relaxed with. I just feel i have to constantly make an effort to think of things to talk about and most conversations bore me. I just dont enjoy talking. But i love my family and so i always make the effort to be with them.
I have a job and its a constant struggle, I cant enjoy the work because I have to interact with people all the time. I would rather have a job with no people but since that is not gonna happen i would rather spend time with these people than be the wierd person who doesnt talk to anyone because this just makes the situations worse and the more you dont try the harder it gets the next time.
I wanna go travelling the world and experience things like bungee jumping and skydiving but this is not usually a solitary act. People usually go traveling with someone else but having to constantly be around someone for months on end would ruin the experience for me. Maybe i should just say screw it go it alone but if i do that it will just be harder when i need to get a job again and will be forced to inevitably interact with people once more. lifes a bitch.
 
what's even more tiring is trying to come out of your shell and act like you don't have SA....I can only do it for like an hour a day lol

I definitely agree. It's so tiresome. I live close enough to work that I go home during my lunch break, and it really is such a nice break in the day to just get away and be by myself so I can stop feeling so anxious for my lunch hour.

Hey you guys should do what I do. Have your parents completely support you at the age of 24 and never leave the house. It's great!

Feels exhausting cause of too many distractions on our minds. We make ourselves sick and tired because we have to keep up with this greedy, self centered, competitive world. I dont really wanna play into this suckers game, Im looking to be more spiritual and heal my body and mind, that is more desireable for me. Being healthy and happy, **** money and work.

This has always been on my mind, Im more into being healthy and happy not work my ass off to make others happy.

I absolutely agree with you that life is exhausting!

I've found it especially exhausting in the two years or so trying to find my next job. I hate frittering away all my savings, savings which I worked hard to build up in the six years I was in my last job.

A good thing to focus on is the money you are earning I guess, at least with savings, you can plan for something, a vacation, going back to further studies, relocating, hobbies..That's why I save like mad, I am trying to save up to quite a healthy proportion of my salary, but even then, its still quite little because my pay is fairly low, but at least its something I can fall back on when I need to.

I'm in the same boat. =( 22 and homebound, and I'll be the same for at least a couple more years, and (who am I kidding?) probably more.

It's really dehumanizing.
